Trivia
Scott Patterson, who plays Luke, was not hired initially as a series regular. He was only signed on for the pilot episode. Although it was only after discovering the undeniable chemistry between him and Lauren Graham that he was contracted for more episodes, and quickly became a series regular.

Goofs
More than a few episodes have mic drops into the top of the scene. There is also at least one episode at Lorelai and Rory's house that shows a brown sweater sleeve of a crew member on the right side for a brief second.

Quotes
Lorelai: [walking into Luke's diner] Give me a burger, onion rings, and a list of people who killed their parents and got away with it. I need some heroes.

Crazy credits
The Dorothy Parker Drank Here production logo after end credits to each episode features an illustration of Dorothy drinking a bottle of wine.

the best ever

i do not exactly know, which audience this show is meant to appeal to. i am a single male in my late thirties with a long history of being in love with my best female "friend". so of course, it will always be the Luke-lorelai relationship that will appeal to me. but the way lorelai interacts with her parents, the way, the town's community is depicted, the sheer speed of a 45 minute drama/comedy, are all simply wonderful. in a lot of ways, it reminds me of thirties' screwball comedies, you know the ones, katherine hepburn, cary grant. anyway, this show is perfectly written, directed and acted. it's a pleasure to watch. my previous favourite shows have been "northern exposure", "picket fences", "buffy" (oh yes) and "frasier". "gilmore girls" took the best of all of them and put it together. i hope, they can keep this sort of level and i hope it will never stop.
